Recent technology advances have enabled mediated query processing with Internet accessible WebSources. A characteristic of WebSources is that their access costs exhibit transient ...
We consider an efficient distributed algorithm for determining a dominating and absorbant set of vertices (mobile hosts) in a given directed graph that represents an ad hoc wirel...
Abstract--Power density and heat density of multicore processor system are increasing exponentially with Moore's Law. High temperature on chip greatly affects its reliability,...
Cluster computing is excellent for parallel computation. It has become increasingly popular. In cluster computing, a service level agreement (SLA) is a set of quality of services (...
